Martyn, who faced just 51 balls, was stranded eight short of his hundred as Australia coasted to a nine-wicket win. Had his century come in another 10 balls or less it would have been the fourth-fastest in one-day international history.

"No I wouldn't have had a clue (about the records). Maybe that's what the guys are going on about right now in the rooms," Martyn told a news conference.

"It would have been nice to get it but it's not the be-all and end-all."

The crowd of 7,654 anxiously waited to see if Martyn could reach his hundred but two boundaries by left-hander Michael Bevan (40 not out) in the 19th over made it impossible for his partner as the home side scored 148 for one from 20.2 overs chasing Bangladesh's modest 147 all out.

"There was no talk really. We were just batting and not worried about that," Martyn said.

"If you start trying to plan things it can all go wrong."

The 31-year-old Western Australia made his comeback this week after surgery kept him out of the West Indies tour and last month's two-Test series against Bangladesh.

Martyn convinced selectors he was fit to play in the World Cup final against India in March despite a broken finger and celebrated with an unbeaten 88 as captain Ricky Ponting smashed a brutal 140 not out in the victory.

Martyn made his comeback with 0 not out on Saturday in Australia's eight-wicket win and savoured his promotion to number three on Sunday, stroking 15 boundaries and one six.

His replacement Martin Love made 100 not out in the second Test against Bangladesh in Cairns to put his hand up for the two-Test series against Zimbabwe in Australia in October.

"Once you come back from injury you want to score runs," said Martyn, a veteran of 33 Tests and 124 one-day internationals.

"You want to show them (selectors) you're fit, that your finger's back to normal again and that you're batting as well as you were before you got injured," added Martyn, who also took two catches on Sunday.

"I've been hitting the ball well in the indoor nets in Perth and I was just keen to get out there."
